That’s because there is just no accountability or responsibility within the club and hasn’t been for a long time.
If Hodgson and Purtill are still at the club next season I honestly think that Pearson will be lucky if he sees 4000 next season.

For all the players were and have been poor it up to the coaching team to change things and get the best out the players.
Playing Houghton week in week out for 80 mins is just a highlight of the issues of Hodgson as a Coach. Even a blind man could see after 25mins he was out on his feet yet the Hodgson & Purtill left him out they’re leaving huge holes in the line which St’s exploited as it’s obvious what we do.
I’m not blaming Danny but he has to also take some responsibility and stick his hand up like Ellis did and say he can’t play 80 mins anymore.
Today was another game that the manner of defeat was inexcusable and indefensible and sadly no longer surprising.

Based on previous appointments even if he goes he will be replaced by someone similarly unproven though.

Thats the worrying thing. We've seen it all before so many times, can't really be bothered to get mad anymore.
Will be thinking long and hard about whether I cough up for a pass next year.

Yeh another assistant to be given time to learn, then we'll be told we need a clearout of the squad and it'll take time...the difference in the same tired plot this time is the Club will be bust from a lack of season pass sales

Pearson has also to take responsibility for bad decisions and allowing the club to become fantasy island when it comes to Hodgsons poor recruitment and that hoping several of the clubs younger players develop into S/L players and that will be enough to catapult the club into a top team.
deluded Adam

Disgraceful effort , No back bone in the entire team . They look like they've just met, total shambles .Get a fooking proper coach in ffs pearson .

To be honest can’t argue with that at all. Pearson needs to take responsibility for the mess of his own doing as he was quick to fire Gentle but took far too long to get rid of Radford and it e we ours seem he hadn’t learnt anything with the appointment and continuation of Hodgson as HC.

The only way for Pearson to resolve this is to pay for a an experienced and proven HC rather that have the club acting ad s training facility for inexperienced coaches to learn in the job
To make matters worse Pearsons continuation with Hodgson & Purtill who’ve shown nothing at all I respect of being capable of doing the job info t they’ve shown the opposite just exacerbates things. So now eve. If we get a new coach we have the self same issues of a squad up with no movement for the new coach.

For me Hodgson has no clue and is completely out his depth and needs to be gone with immediate affect.

You dont need to be a proven coach to be successful in R/L and that goes in football also
I am certain that even some of the English coaches in the game even in the second tier would do a lot better than Hodgson given the backing he has from Pearson
What other coach in S/L would make five positional changes because we lost our full back.
Wouldnt Smith to full back and Lovodua to six have been more sensible?

Hodgson ain't going anywhere (I think)

Dwyer is a massive upgrade on what you have got (most Leeds fans would like him to stay ) Sutty is a great squad man but should not be in your first seventeen

The worry is that if Hodgson isnt going anywhere it’s the fanbase that will be the one that’s gone.

Weather was lovely.

The fans that were left at the end couldn’t even be bothered to boo.

Listened to Hodgson coming home and it was pathetic. I’ve given him the benefit of the doubt , but 40+ point beatings are becoming the norm, and he just asked us to be patient.

I hate the Dobbins with a passion but they at least show fight and effort. Everything we don’t.

At a loss with it

Three times we've had 60 points put on us with two of them at home , Just not acceptable..

We’ve conceded more points in the last half dozen games than Saints have all year.

Honestly can’t see who could turn this around.

Quick question - Would we have been any worse under Andy Last?

That's like saying should Radford still be the coach

Keiron Purtill should be in charge for the rest of the season IMO. Did well at Leigh (us) & Widnes until their well documented money problems.

Would never say that (should have gone in 201icon_cool.gif, but can’t see it being any worse under Last.

I know Hodgson has been tasked with sorting out a long standing mess, but you can’t see any improvements in performance.

Hodgson was appointed on a 2 year contract. As far as I'm aware they haven't announced an extension. So no need for a pay off.

Hope AP has learned his lesson with Radford given him to long before he was sacked.

We needed a clean break from the Radford era, for me. Employing Last wouldn't have done that. We still had big scores put on us in 2020 after the COVID break

He's on a 3 year deal

Sounds like Walker has a broken foot and Mcintosh has an ankle injury. Both probably out of Fridays game

And 2/3rds of the way through his tenure he's taken us from GF semi finalists to failing to make the 6 twice.

Fair point. I agree about a clean break being needed. Lasty might have done okay, but was probably too closely linked to Radford.

Still think BH would be better suited as a DOR, putting systems and pathways in place , but leaving the coaching to someone else.

Finances wouldn’t allow for that anyway. It’s not the defeats, it’s the manner of them. Really don’t know what can turn this around.
